چکیده
Three-dimensional Bi(2)WO(6)/TiO(2) hierarchical heterostructures with secondary anatase TiO(2) nanoparticles grown on primary Bi(2)WO(6) microspheres have been successfully obtained by a low temperature hydrothermal method. The hierarchical Bi(2)WO(6)/TiO(2) structures displayed significantly enhanced visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity in comparison to isolated Bi(2)WO(6) microspheres and TiO(2) nanoparticles. Furthermore, this methodology is of general interest, because it can be used to fabricate other oxide heterostructures, such as BiVO(4)/TiO(2) and Bi(2)MoO(6)/TiO(2).

Facile and Green Synthesis of Palladium Nanoparticles-Graphene-Carbon Nanotube Material with High Catalytic Activity
We report a facile and green method to synthesize a new type of catalyst by coating Pd nanoparticles (NPs) on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocomposite. An rGO-CNT nanocomposite with three-dimensional microstructures was obtained by hydrothermal treatment of an aqueous dispersion of graphene oxide (GO) and CNTs. After the rGO-CNT composites have been dipped in K₂PdCl₄ sol...
متن کاملFacile and generalized encapsulations of inorganic nanocrystals with nitrogen-doped carbonaceous coating for multifunctionality.
A simple strategy toward versatile encapsulations of inorganic nanocrystals, through a green hydrothermal treatment of commercial polyurethane sponge, was developed. This approach enables us to realize a general method to form a surface-adherent, N-doped coating with a controllable thickness for well-defined structures. These composites exhibit active properties in optical applications and ener...

Titania (anatase) and Ag-doped titania (anatase) coatings were prepared on glass microscope slides by a sol–gel dip-coating method. The resultant coatings were characterised by X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES), Raman, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), wavelength dispersive X-ray (WDX) analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV-vis techniques and sho...
متن کاملHydrothermal synthesis of nanostructured graphene/polyaniline composites as high-capacitance electrode materials for supercapacitors
As known to all, hydrothermal synthesis is a powerful technique for preparing inorganic and organic materials or composites with different architectures. In this reports, by controlling hydrothermal conditions, nanostructured polyaniline (PANi) in different morphologies were composited with graphene sheets (GNS) and used as electrode materials of supercapacitors. Specifically, ultrathin PANi la...
متن کاملSurface characterisation and photocatalytic performance of N-doped TiO2 thin films deposited onto 200nm pore size alumina membranes by sol-gel methods
Membrane filtration is employed for water treatment and wastewater reclamation purposes, but membranes alone are unable to remove pollutant molecules and certain pathogens. Photocatalytically active N-doped TiO2 coatings have been deposited by solegel onto 200 nm pore size alumina membranes for water treatment applications using two different methods, via pipette droplets or spiral bar applicat...
